Whether homeowners insurance covers a pool leak depends on your policy, so always check your policy documents before taking on repairs. If the leak is due to a fallen branch or a fire, your insurance likely covers it. However, your insurer likely won’t pay for wear and tear.

The cost of installing an in-ground pool is about $55,000 on average. This cost can range from $39,000 to $70,000 or more, depending on factors like your pool's size, shape, and materials. 

Vinyl in-ground pools are the most budget-friendly option, averaging around $30,000. However, these typically only last about 25 years. More expensive options, like concrete, last longer (up to 75 years) but come with a heavier price tag of $50,000.

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.

A qualified pool contractor who is familiar with local regulations can assess your yard and let you know if it’s feasible to install a pool. Whether or not your yard is suitable for a pool depends on a number of factors, including the size of your yard, the placement of utility lines, your yard’s terrain, and more. It’s a good idea to see if it’s even possible to put a pool on your property before you get too far into planning.
